🚨Warnings from Sen. Ron Wyden reveal that governments around the world are #spying on #Google and #Apple push notifications. 🕵

Tuta introduced our own custom push notification system for #Android devices which are fully encrypted and #surveillance resistant. We include minimal information in #iOS push notifications to counter this threat.🔒

Surveillance requests should be transparently disclosed by Apple and Google, not silenced by a gag-order! 🤐

Ronan Farrow's book "Catch & Kill" described how weather push notifications were used to track him physically in cities as he researched Harvey Weinstein.

Page 96.

Domestic espionage on journalists is an industry.

@TutanotaWhat do you mean by 'monitoring push notifications'. Can someone Explain to me like I'm Calvin?

Does it mean governments monitor those 'New email from' notifications on my phone? I've turned those notifications OFF, doesn't that mean it's a non-issue for me?

@Deus Yes, these are the notifications being collected and monitored by government intelligence agencies. They often contain information about the phone number or email address which is contacting you. If these notifications use the native push service from Apple or Google they are being spied upon.
